FoodWorks is an Australian supermarket chain run by independent retail group Australian United Retailers (AUR). It is Australia's second largest independent supermarket retailing group behind Metcash, supporting in excess of A$2.6 billion in annual sales at the retail level. Its main competitors are Woolworths, Coles, IGA and Aldi.
The AUR and FoodWorks Management team[3] is led by CEO Rick Wight and Executive General Manager Jon Yarnall.
History
AUR was created in November 2004 from the merger of the FoodWorks Supermarket Group and Australian United Retailers (AUR).[4] Retail groups that were part of the merger included:
- 7"2"7
- AUR
- Banana Joe's
- Buy Rite
- Cut Price
- Food-Rite
- Food-Way
- FoodStore
- FoodWorks
- Rite-Way
- Tuckerbag
Operations
The AUR currently has over 600 supermarkets, grocery stores and convenience stores. The stores span seven states and territories. Over 400 stores are operating under the FoodWorks brand.[5] FoodWorks has some similarities to IGA, the brand's closest competitor. They have similar ancestry, both being created from independent retail stores merging to create supermarket groups. Also, both comprise multiple individual retailers originally trading under some of the same independent chains.
